Community Planning Council

The Community Planning Council was established by Greenwich United Way to encourage the most effective and efficient health and human service delivery system for the Greenwich community. The Council is made up of community leaders, nonprofit service providers, Greenwich United Way board members, and community volunteers. The Planning Council provides guidance to the Greenwich United Way board and the community about human service issues which have been determined to be of importance to the community. The work of the Planning Council, particularly through its periodic Needs Assessments, has led to the development of some of Greenwich’s most valued programs and institutions.

The information in the Needs Assessment represent the input of countless individuals and organizations that have generously agreed to share documentation, statistics, opinions and perspectives to make this report as useful as possible.

Community Investment Process

Volunteers serving on the Community Investment Process recommend grant funding for programs. The process involves months of reviewing proposals from local agencies, a deep dive into the organization’s financials and visiting program sites. The volunteers use their knowledge and expertise to determine effective uses for Greenwich United Way funds. They are guided by documentation of local needs as published in the previous Needs Assessment.
